Chapter 21 Shengtian Banzi
Shen Lang stood there in a daze for a long time before he remembered that Gu Jialan had promised him that he would pay all the money after the premiere today.

He originally thought that he would have to spend some time talking, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually transfer the money immediately.

Seeing Shen Lang not speaking, Gu Jialan asked anxiously, "Hey, Shen Lang, are you listening to me?"

Shen Lang came back to his senses and said solemnly: "Boss, thank you!"

Gu Jialan was stunned and asked, "Did something happen? This doesn't sound like what you would say!"

Shen Lang said: "I'm at my father's place. He, he's not in good health!"

Gu Jialan heard this and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Is Mr. Shen Biao sick?"

Shen Lang asked in surprise: "Do you know my father?"

Gu Jialan did not answer his question, but asked: "Where do you live? I'll go see the old man!"

"This..." Shen Lang hesitated for a moment, but still gave his home address.

Half an hour later, Gu Jialan's car stopped outside the yard.

Shen Lang looked at her carrying large and small bags of health products and said a little embarrassedly: "Boss, you said you would come, so why are you carrying so many things? I misjudged you. You are a really good boss to your employees!"

Gu Jialan glanced at him without saying anything.

When she arrived at Shen Biao's bedside, Wu Mei was very surprised: "Gu...Gu Jialan, are you Shen Lang's boss?"

Gu Jialan smiled slightly, a sweet smile that Shen Lang had never seen before, and said to Wu Mei: "Hello, Aunt Wu, we met at the party in Huabiao five years ago!"

five years ago?
Shen Lang recalled that five years ago was the year when Shen Biao won the Huabiao Lifetime Achievement Award. He didn't expect that Gu Jialan actually knew his family at that time?

Wu Mei was somewhat touched as she held Gu Jialan's hand and said, "I didn't expect you would still remember us."

Gu Jialan smiled and said, "Mr. Shen and Auntie are both seniors in our circle, how could I not remember you!"

After saying that, she turned her head and looked at the bed and said, "Mr. Shen, what is this...?"

Wu Mei sighed and said, "I was diagnosed with gastric cancer half a year ago and had one-third of my stomach removed. When I went for a follow-up check-up a while ago, I found that it had recurred!"

Shen Lang was shocked when he heard this. After he came back, he didn't even ask what disease his father had.

I didn’t expect it…it turned out to be cancer.

And it relapsed.

Gu Jialan said solemnly: "Then why don't you go to the hospital?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Mei glanced at Shen Lang and said, "Old Shen himself refused to go to the hospital. He said that he had lived for most of his life, and that was enough..."

After saying that, she turned her head away. Although she tried hard not to cry out loud, the twitching of her shoulders still made Shen Lang and Gu Jialan who were present feel uncomfortable.

Shen Lang said: "Mom, I'll take my dad to the hospital right away!"

Wu Mei wiped her eyes, turned to look at Shen Lang and said coldly: "If he was willing to go, he would have gone a long time ago. If it weren't for you, he wouldn't be like this!"

Shen Lang was anxious: "I have money now. Treatment is important and can't be delayed!"

When Gu Jialan saw this scene, he roughly guessed what was going on.

She heard some things about Shen Lang and his ex-wife Lin Jiaer from others.

Lin Jiaer had just debuted at that time, and for the sake of connections, she hooked up with Shen Lang, a rich young man in the Beijing circle.

Shen Lang is a well-known wife-loving man. Not only did he introduce all the resources at hand to his wife, he also transferred the assets under his name to Lin Jiaer.

In the end, after getting what she wanted, Lin Jiaer turned against Shen Lang and told the media that Shen Lang was committing domestic violence.

Because Shen Lang mostly plays villains in movies and TV shows, as soon as the news came out, many uninformed viewers insisted that Shen Lang was a scumbag.

At this time, Gu Jialan said, "Auntie, Shen Lang recently signed a contract with our company. He made a lot of money from his first play. He can still afford the cost of the old man's hospitalization!"

Wu Mei didn't expect Shen Lang to actually get back to work. She looked at Shen Lang in surprise, then took Gu Jialan's hand and said, "Mr. Gu, thank you!"

Halfway through his words, tears started flowing uncontrollably.

Shen Lang was so depressed. What kind of jerk was he in the eyes of his family?

She paid off the debts owed to her previous owner for her parents, but in the end, Wu Mei was still grateful to her boss.

Gu Jialan glanced at the depressed Shen Lang, smiled at Wu Mei and said, "Aunt Wu, you are too polite, we are all family!" After that, she took out her cell phone and made a call. After a while, she said on the phone, "Hello, Professor Qu, I am sorry to disturb your rest so late. This is the case. A relative of mine has a recurrence of gastric cancer and wants to stay in your ward. Please help take a look in person!"

"Okay, fine..."

At this point, she turned to look at Shen Lang and said, "Address!"

Shen Lang quickly gave the specific address of his parents' home.

Gu Jialan repeated it and continued, "Okay, then I'll wait here for the ambulance from the hospital. Thank you, Professor Qu!"

After hanging up the phone, Gu Jialan took Wu Mei's hand and said, "Aunt Wu, this Professor Qu is our country's top expert in treating gastric cancer. With his help, Mr. Shen will get better soon!"

Wu Mei didn't expect that her stepson's boss would be so awesome. She wiped her tears and said, "Boss Gu, how can we thank you?"

Gu Jialan smiled and said, "I am not doing this just for Shen Lang. In fact, Mr. Shen is also my benefactor. Am I here to repay him?"

"Oh?" Wu Mei asked doubtfully, "You knew our Mr. Shen before?"

Gu Jialan smiled slightly and said nothing.

After a while, the ambulance took Shen Biao, who was lying on the bed, to the hospital.

Wu Mei did not come with them because she had to take care of Shen Zhuangzhuang at home.

When Shen Lang and Gu Jialan rushed to the hospital, they were busy again. Finally, they met Professor Qu, who then ordered a bunch of tests.

After finishing the work, Shen Biao lay in the luxurious single room and still did not wake up.

Apart from the patient Shen Biao, there were only himself and Gu Jialan in the ward. He had been busy for more than two hours and it was already early morning.

Shen Lang said: "Boss Gu, I'll pay the fee and then take you back. It's too late."

Gu Jialan glanced at him and said, "Forget it. You still have to pay back the money to the bank. I have already deposited two months' worth of treatment and nursing fees for you!"

Shen Lang stared at Gu Jialan seriously for a long time, until Gu Jialan felt embarrassed and asked, "Why are you looking at me?"

Shen Lang asked, "How did you know my father back then? Is it because of my father's face that I was able to join the company?"

Gu Jialan looked up at Shen Lang and said, "Since you have the time, why don't you figure out how to work for me?"

Shen Lang: "..."

"I help your father because you can create value for my company. I hope you don't misunderstand me!" Gu Jialan said calmly, "Also, I have received a notice for you to fly to Suzhou Province for an audition in ten days."

Talking about work, Shen Lang asked seriously: "Boss, what book?"

"A serious film about anti-corruption, called In the Name of the People!"

"What?" Shen Lang asked in surprise.

Gu Jialan frowned: "Why? Have you heard of it?"

I've heard a lot about it. It's the pinnacle of domestic dramas. It swept the TV charts back then and later became a phenomenal anti-corruption film.

"Whether you've heard of it or not, I've already booked an audition spot for you, and your father's medical expenses will be deducted from the profits from this play!"

Shen Lang asked: "What role did you ask me to try out for?"

"A department official named Qi Tongwei, a villain!"

"Qi Tongwei, who is half a step ahead of heaven?" Shen Lang was secretly delighted.

"Okay, boss, I promise to get the role!" Shen Lang said excitedly.

Gu Jialan looked at Shen Lang with a strange expression and muttered quietly, "He's addicted to playing villains..."

"what?"

"I said, two nurses are already waiting outside the door, take me back now!"

"Yes, boss, OK boss!"

"Well, do your best..."

"This……"
